In this Holy Year, Pope Francis has called for a more compassionate church that excludes no one. He said “no one can be excluded from God’s mercy.” The international Roman Catholic Women Priests Movement affirms the Gospel message of compassion which demonstrates solidarity, inclusiveness and justice for all. We call on Pope Francis to take action to make the Church an empowering community that respects the primacy of conscience for all Catholics by removing all ecclesiastical punishments against the members of our movement, including excommunication. Catholic support for our movement is evident in an online petition. See: https://action.groundswell-mvmt.org/petitions/pope-francis-welcome-all-priests
